Episode Synopsis
"When you see so many people coming into hospital with preventable disease and you see the amount of suffering associated with landing in ICU, you really want to provide people with the tools to avoid seeing someone like myself." - Dr. Kwadwo Kyeremanteng
As an ICU and palliative care physician, Dr. Kwadwo Kyeremanteng (Dr. KK) reveals a startling truth: nearly half of his ICU patients could have avoided being there through better lifestyle choices. With his wealth of frontline medical experience, Dr. KK shares powerful insights about preventing chronic illness and building what he calls "body armor" through strength training.

We dive deep into the science of longevity, exploring everything from the transformative power of protein to the surprising benefits of sauna therapy. Dr. KK's mission to keep people out of the ICU through prevention is revolutionizing how we think about health and aging, making this episode a must-listen for anyone committed to living their strongest, healthiest life.
